    Capri panini
    Jill B.

    Always a great experience at Ally's! The staff are all very friendly and helpful, and the food comes out quickly. Lunch is usually quite busy - we found a table on the patio and enjoyed our sandwiches outside. I usually get one of their salads, or the chicken salad and the roasted red pepper soup (so good!), but today I went with a capri panini. Very good! Love that they have gluten-free options available as well.

    Great place for lunch! They handle large corporate group orders perfectly, and labeling each meal with everyone's name is a total lifesaver.

    Many selections

    Great selection from salads, sandwiches, pizzas and more. Very clean, fast service and very friendly staff. Great atmosphere!! I got the roast beef special....so good the balsamic with the garlic is what did it for me! Very good!

    Pics are from a prior visit Went yesterday for brunch. Sat in bar section to get service. They were short handed so the bartender finally came over to wait on us after quite a while. The croissant breakfast sandwich was good but the bacon was cooked to nearly dust on one end for some reason. I snapped it off and ate the rest. I asked for crispy but not great hash browns. They were crispy. Check. But also greasy and worse, cold. Not even hardly warm. When she came to check, she asked how things were and I said "Eh" and was about to let her know but she left. So I had to take them home which I explained when I asked someone else for a box (told her they had been served cold but she said nothing). As a note, reheated they were very greasy and not good. The Leanne's special with waffle and eggs and bacon was good. That bacon was cooked right. We also ordered the kids' chicken tenders with fries which were good (but we were overcharged for them which required us to point that out after the check came to get it fixed). Overall, would try here again for breakfast but disappointing as I've been coming here since 2012 when they first opened and had very limited hours and prior to the multiple remodels and expansion next door.

    BLT Wrap w/Fresh Apples
    John F.

    Fresh, fast and really good food. Choice of Full Service or Deli Counter ordering. Food is delivered to your table even if you choose to order at the counter. My BLT Wrap was awesome and I loved the choice of fresh apples vs. Kettle Chips. My Chicken Noodle Soup was also very tasty and the cup was a generous portion. (However it was so good I wish I would have orders a bowl!)

    I stopped in here quickly to pick up breakfast and was wowed by all the locals inside. The place was packed and had a ton of pickup orders. I ordered there and waited, but my order didn't take long at all. The food (breakfast burrito) was fabulous and the coffee was very tasty. Great spot for breakfast and I bet lunch is amazing as well!

    We're rarely in this area, but happened to be over the weekend and my husband noted that Ally's is a great spot. We decided to give it a go for Saturday lunch. He wasn't wrong, it's nice here! Not just your average deli. The restaurant is well-kept, the atmosphere is calm and enjoyable, and the food is quality. Plys, I'm a fan of order-from-the-counter casual spots. They were quick to take our order and equally as fast to bring out the food. I was starving and very excited to tuck into a big sammie, which is just what I got with the Dilled Chicken Salad Sandwich. It had a really great flavor and wasn't too mayo-y like some chicken salads tend to be. Also the rye bread was so squishy and delicious. It seemed fresh baked. My husband really enjoyed his Chicken Capri sandwich as well, which came off the panini menu. There are a few options for sides, like chips and salsa, apple slices, or kettle chips. Our meals were delicious and worth the price. However, we also got the avocado toast for our son, and it was really just sub-par. Something we likely wouldn't pay $10+ again. I would undoubtedly return here to try some of the many, many other options on their menu. Honestly so many delicious sounding dishes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner!

    I stopped here for breakfast on my way out of town to start my morning. The place is in a strip mall with plenty of parking. The restaurant has two sides with the bar area having table service and the cafe having walk up to the counter service so I went to the bar side. The place has a music decor with music memorabilia and instruments on the walls. I would order a Bloody Mary and the village breakfast. The Bloody Mary was average with a cube of cheese, pickle and a bacon strip. The village breakfast is 2 eggs, choice of meat, hash browns and toast. My food came quickly and I noticed that this is one of those places that gives you one piece of toast cut in half so my second egg is useless because I can only make one toast sandwich, when did we move away from 2 pieces of toast that I'm noticing in the last couple years. The eggs were perfect sunny side up. The wheat toast was nicely toasted. The extra crispy hash browns with added onion were delicious. The sausage patties were horrible because they were so bland and had no pork sausage flavor and maybe they were a turkey sausage but not good at all.

    Leanne's Breakfast Special Waffle
    Jerilyn A.

    I usually go to Ally's bistro for the amazing clam chowder but today I decided to try it for breakfast. Any place that has a waffle meal is good in my book! I ordered the Leanne's special and it came out pretty quickly. The food could have been warmer but overall it was a solid breakfast meal for the price. The waffle was fluffy but still had a bit of crispness to it and the bacon was good and cooked well. It looks like the breakfast menu has a bunch more options and they also do lunch and dinner here so I would definitely come back to try more. It's a good casual place to go and grab food.

This particular location has plenty of space for different size groups. You can choose between the downstairs area, an upstairs space, or a nicely appointed outdoor patio. The staff are consistently friendly and helpful. The baristas are usually high quality, but occasionally you will get someone who is either in training or using their own techniques. Today was a good example of that challenge. My usual London Fog Tea Latte was a surprise. You can check out the pictures. Whoever made it steeped the tea in the cup and then poured the steamed milk over the top, instead of removing the steeper and then adding the milk. No worries. I went back and they were happy to fix it. The reworked one was a bit cooler than I like, but the texture was much better. The bakery here is good too. There is a nice selection, though it does not taste as fresh as if it were made on site. I always ask to have bakery items warmed up, which I think improves the taste.

The chai was well made, with nice foam and served at a good temperature. Unfortunately, they don't have mugs, so hot drinks are served in paper cups. That's not my preference when I'm sitting down to enjoy a hot beverage. The chai mix they use (I'm pretty sure it's a powder) was a bit on the sweet side. The scone, however, was delicious. It had a great texture, lots of peach flavor, and was a generous size. Service: The service was friendly and helpful. I also had a chance to observe the staff interacting with other customers, and everyone received the same consistently warm service. Lots of smiles and genuine greetings. Atmosphere: It's not a traditional coffee shop, but it's a pleasant place to enjoy a beverage and a pastry. The large windows let in plenty of natural light, and the products are attractively displayed, making it easy to see all of your choices. A very good experience.

The place is small, and nicely furnished, with some natural light coming through the front and rear entrances. The server was friendly and did a great job to answer my questions. (thanks Emily). This is not your typical coffee shop or cafe. There are some very interesting drinks and food items, that you will not find anywhere else. I typically get a hot Tea Latte (London Fog or Chai Latte), but they don't offer those. I was initially disappointed but I quickly got over it. I ended up getting the Creme Brulee Croissant, and a Ancient Brown Sugar Tea. Let's first talk about the Croissant, truly amazing. Like a Creme Brulee (which I love) it has a layer of caramelized sugar on top. The taste and texture was amazing. The Brown Sugar Tea, was very good, but very sweet. I skipped the boba part (tapioca pearls), but might try it next time. The place was quiet and cozy. Some other customers came in and were either working or having quiet conversations. Great environment to bring a book and read. I'll be back, and this time with a friend.
